Aracno't wrote:...due to all the site being found as soon as they spawn, before the patch you might scan down 3 or 4 systems before you found something now you lucky to find anything after spending a day going from system to system. Then you are doing it wrong.
Aracno't wrote:i spent moths training up my scanning skills to level 5 so i could use all 8 probes and use them well, now all i have to do i spend a week training to get the same result, scan ships are now next to use less because you can now get the great scan strength from a bs fit with the moduals which means that. which means all us player who have spend months traing for the right ships and skills have been told bad luck don't care errr.... With level V skills you'll still find stuff faster than a 3 week noob, and you'll have cargo scanned and cleared half the site before they even arrive. 'Course that's given you are doing it right which... well.... see above. And scan strength ships also get bonuses to Analyzers, so you can cruise thru the tier 1 data/relic sites one-shoting firewalls and never taking damage. Again, do it right.
I agree it's been dumbed down so that any monkey can go "exploring". Though that's not even the right word for it. It's hardly exploration when you have a big glowing red ball on your map saying "goodies here! probe now!". There's alot of other stuff to complain about (like the lack of decent strategy in the mini-game, or the pointless loot spew), but not really what the OP is hitting at.

Well pre-Odyssey you had to have the wherewithal to actually get your probeboat and go out and check to see if there was anything to be found. Nowdays the game grabs your face and rubs your nose in the site screaming "HERE!!! SCAN HERE!!!". So there is that. Otherwise, the new system does require a bit more thought and effort than the old click-n-wait.

Mnemosyne Gloob wrote:I agree. People without a probe launcher should not see signatures. I don't know why it was made that way. errr.... So that people who have never done "exploration" before will be inspired to give it a shot? It seems pretty friggin' obvious. I'm not a particularly big fan of it either, but I understand why CCP did it.
